03/07/2010 - Liverpool, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mikel Arteta scored his first two goals of the season, Landon Donovan added a goal and an assist, and Everton defeated Hull City 5-1 on Sunday at Goodison Park.
Arteta, limited to six EPL matches due to injury, scored both in the first and Donovan scored in the 82nd and assisted on Jack Rodwell's goal in the 86th.
Everton, which got its other score on an own goal, moved to eighth. Hull City, which is 0-11-4 on the road, remains in the bottom three.
Hull had a chance to open the scoring just five minutes into the match, but as Richard Garcia settled a through ball from Nick Barmby, Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard charged off his line and deflected his shot attempt just as it left his boot.
Ayegbeni Yakubu should have fired Everton into the lead in the 13th, but drove a 16-yard shot off the right post.
Yakubu made up for the miss four minutes later when he sent a pass in from the right to the far post, where Arteta ran onto the ball and hit a volley inside the near post to beat Hull goalie Boaz Myhill.
Everton was handed a chance to put the match away in the 28th when Yakubu was fouled in the area, but his weak penalty attempt was easily handled by Myhill.
Hull responded with the tying goal three minutes later through 19-year-old Tom Cairney. The young midfielder chested down a pass just outside the box and hit the ball before it reached the ground to unleash a dipping shot over Howard to the far post.
Everton was back in front within 10 minutes when George Boateng settled a pass in the area, then dropped the ball to Steven Pienaar, who rolled the ball with a back pass to Arteta for an easy finish.
Richard Garcia headed an Arteta cross into his own net six minutes after half, then Donovan came off the bench to finish off the victory in what could be his last match at Goodison.
Donovan, who will rejoin the Los Angeles Galaxy in MLS soon, set up Yakubu for a chance he sent over the bar in the 74th but then added a goal and an assist.
Everton played a ball in from the left, and it slipped just by Rodwell in the center of the area and arrived to an open Donovan at the far post. Donovan hit the ball powerfully off a bounce, drilling it back inside the far post in the 82nd.
Donovan had another chance minutes later from a similar spot, but sent a pass back into the middle to Rodwell, who did well to finish just inside the right post.
The United States star joined Everton on loan in January and has two goals and three assists in just nine matches.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
